Project involvements

My areas of interest are wireless and mobile communications and computer networks, namely: common radio resource management, QoS, media access control and routing protocols.

Currently, my Ph.D. research, which started in November 2006, is focused on common radio resource management in a heterogeneous network infrastructure where cellular networks, wireless networks, broadband wireless networks and broadcast networks coexists. In a first stage, I intend to use Wimax OPNET model to study the QoS impact in the performance of several type of services in a heterogeneous network infra-structure, where Wimax is used for the last mile access network. In a second phase, in my Phd research work, where new Common Radio Resource Management algorithms will be proposed, the Modeler simulation tool of OPNET is planned to be used for evaluating and assessing the proposed algorithms.
